How is the mixture compressed?

Bigfoot brickmakers use a ram-compact method to ensure well compacted bricks. The lever arm is well balance for ease of use and the ram is precisely guided by the ram shafts. The compaction process consists of tw or three drops of the ram head onto the mixture until the stoppers reach their position, disallowing further compression. The process takes a couple of seconds. By using the extraction lever, the units are ejected and the machine is moved forward to repeat the process.*

*Electric vibration can be used and is available as an optional extra.

*Depending on type of brick / block an labour situation.

High capacity static brickmakers and panmixers are also manufactured and specifications are availible on request.
